Social Justice
“I believe that education is the civil rights issue of our generation. And if you care about
promoting opportunity and reducing inequality, the classroom is the place to start. Great teaching
is about so much more than education; it is a daily fight for social justice.”
~ Secretary Arne Duncan, October 9, 2009

Hi Tahais,
Please HELP! Here are some things that I do in my
classes I don’t know where to start.
• My students say that they cannot afford my text
books, I didn’t realize they total over $400.
• I still use a chalkboard and whiteboard
• I tend to talk throughout the whole class and I notice
that students use their cellphones, and look bored
• I don’t know how to use the Internet or help my
students to find other online resources
• Students don’t ask questions
• I am concerned about cheating For quizzes I tend to
use the same quiz with a hundred questions
• I have no make up test nor do I give extra time
• I give standard Feedback for all students
• I am also guilty of assuming that my students have
the same educational level, cultural knowledge,
language, and learning style.
